Sasha clearly wasn't interested in trying to stick it out in the NBA, but watching Duarte play more than you has to be deflating. Sasha was supposedly the best shooter on the team, and should've gotten a steady 15+ minutes every night.

Neat, but I'd rather see that distributed so they win at the end of 48 minutes, and reach the end of the season without burning them out.

I knew going from Barnes to DeRozan would be huge, but seeing it is exciting.

Yeah, and when GPII had his "breakout" he was already 29, Keon is still only 24.

Even if DeRozan has a dropoff in production, he is miles ahead of what Barnes provides. Keegan can focus on defense and sniping threes, and who better to learn creating offense from.

I don't understand salary dumping lower salary players. It's one thing to dump Rashaun or Huerter for flexibility. But unless he has a move already setup, this doesn't look good. I don't like creating space just in case you can make a move. You turned 2 backend rotation players into a single...

Ok he's 6-2.5 but has a bigger wingspan than Huerter. He would be listed as 6-4 or 6-5 in the old days with shoes. Playing the 2/3 is not an issue.

I will always welcome defense

Maybe he gets a chance to turn it around in Sac. All the talk last offseason about him breaking team shooting records leave me hopeful.

Watching every minute Duarte got at the 3 must've killed him inside.

There isn't much of a gap between the team's 5th best player and 14th best player. McGee was a rotation player, then Len. Barnes can be outplayed by Lyles. Duarte was starting ahead of Huerter, and eventually was behind Keesler Edwards. They were all ahead of Sasha, who was playing important...

He was a good player before Sac, was no where close to an all star in Sac, and fell on his face under Adelman in Houston.

I'm the biggest Adelman fan but that is not remotely true.

The team has 2 second tier stars, a really nice young player and a good 6th man. The the rest of the roster are backend rotation players. The coach isn't the problem.

Good riddance
